Tips for cleaning towels

1. Pour the rice washing water (first and second time) into the pot, put the towel in to boil, and cook for a while after boiling. After doing this, the towel will become whiter, softer, thicker than before, and have a light rice fragrance.

2. Put the towel in hot water with detergent, boil or scald it for 5 minutes, then wash it while it is hot.

3. Wash towels frequently and boil them with soap or laundry detergent for a few minutes every once in a while to prevent them from becoming hard. When boiling, the towel should be completely immersed in water to avoid oxidation when in contact with air, which will reduce its softness.

4. When washing towels, put them into strong soapy water, vinegar water or alkaline water and boil them for a while. The soapy water should submerge the towels during boiling. Then rinse it with clean water and warm water several times in turn, and dry it in a ventilated place with water. Once dried, the towel will be soft again. It should be noted that towels should not be exposed to the sun for a long time. It is generally better to dry them naturally in a ventilated place.

5. Boil the towel in boiling water for about 10 minutes, then wash it with soap, then rinse it thoroughly with clean water. Finally, fold the towel and put it in the microwave and heat it for 5 minutes.
